Doorstep snaps return this Christmas

Wednesday, 2 November 2022 00:00

Local professional photographer, Simon Ward, is bringing back his charity doorstep snaps this Christmas.

This will be the fourth time that Simon has offered the doorstep snaps. His previous efforts, both during Covid lockdowns and since, have raised £5,125.

The money has been split between two local charities with both Julias House and the Stars Appeal.

This year's effort is taking place between the 21st of November and December 23rd, and Simon would like to photograph as many people, families, businesses and local organisations as possible.

All you need to do to get involved is donate to Julias House, the Stars Appeal or both.

Simon said: "There's no minimum or maximum amount you can donate, and this year more than most money is tight, so all I ask is for you to be as generous as you can. Charities across Britain have struggled with fundraising over the past couple of years, so your support is very much appreciated."

"Also, if you'd like to donate to Doorstep Snaps but not have your picture taken, that's fine too!"
